Teach them

Katya translates for Bro O'Brien during services. Ira is here with her son Dima listening to the Scriptures being expounded unto her. Ira struggled to live up to God's standard of righteousness, but eventually saw her condemnation. Sept 01

Deaf Group

Ira (center) joined our other deaf at the front of the church. She faithfully attended most every SunPM service.

Understandest what thou readest?

Lina teaches Ira through Scriptures, trying to give Ira a better understanding of God's plan of salvation. It took many months to wash away her religiousness and expose her to Gospel truths.

Saved & Serving
